Meanwhile, fans have been relieved that the ITV reality show arrived back on screens this week after a storm in Wales meant the live broadcast was pulled last weekend. Fortunately, Ant and Dec revealed on Tuesday that everything was back in motion, however, they did reveal their worries for more bad weather.

Appearing on This Morning, Ant told Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield: "There’s a slight worry because I think there’s more bad weather coming next week. But I think it’s just temperatures dropping and maybe a bit of snow, a bit of frost and I think we can cope with that." Dec jokingly added: "We never get this in Australia!"

The presenting duo both praised the production team for getting the show back on air following the destruction caused by the storm. Ant said: "It's been a challenge but, like we said, the team have been fantastic."
